I've tried to use the virtual try on with Warby Parker on my iMac and it doesn't work. I have tried several ways to access it. When I used Siri it said I didn't have an app called Camera and directed me to the app store. Do I need an app?
Ok so Safari is fine.
Now we have to check if your iMac Camera settings are correct:
Control access to the camera on Mac - Apple Support
If you see some option regarding Safari or that site in this section, turn it on.
Thank you for the reply. I did as you suggested and gave the site permission to access the camera. It did not work for me. I turned off the VPN, ad blocker and tried again. No luck. I tested my camera with FaceTime and the camera works fine. I also use the camera at least 2 times a week with Zoom and no problem. So I'm still working on the problem. I'm using Version 16.6 (18615.3.12.11.2) and Ventura 13.5.1 (22G90)
Thanks again. I did follow the instructions in the article. I went to Safari settings and websites and gave Warby Parker permission to access the camera. I restarted the computer. I turned off the VPN and ad blocker and tried the virtual try on again. No luck. The screen is brown and says to get in the frame. I move all around but don't show up because the camera light isn't on. When I click the camera icon in the upper menu the screen goes black. I will try whatever else you suggest. However, I'm stepping away from my computer for a little bit. Thanks again.
No problem! I think that since you seem to have some third party Safari plugins, we need to try this method:
Reload the page without ANY active third party plugin in this way:
If you go in Safari's website bar, you will see a three dotted icon.
Click on it and select "reload without content blockers" option while you are on the Warby Parker's page.
In this way you can be sure that no third party plugin are interfering with the site.
Sometimes Safari has some compatibility issues especially with older OS, you don't say what OS you are on, but in any case, try FireFox.
Safari is my main browser, but if there are issues, I like having.FireFox around to check.
Thanks. I couldn't fine the 3 dots you mentioned. However, KeithBarkley suggested using a different browser. I did - I used Chrome (not one I like but need to use for bank transactions) and it worked. Thanks for all the help. I'll keep using Safari and eventually will find the three dots...😉
thanks Keith. I have Chrome on my computer because I have to use it for some banking. Chrome works fine. Thanks for the suggestion. Really appreciate it.
I've tried it and it works without any app, try to check if your Safari's website settings are allowing the camera usage on that site:
Customize settings for each website in Safari on Mac
I just tried it and it worked as described; no additional app required.
My safari is using all default settings.
